Today i was asked to add the support of my angular 4 project with ie9. The problem im facing is that material design light grid are not supported by ie9 as stated in this post.
What can I do to make my input responsive? now they are all on 1 column and im kinda lost.
Also, are there any important polyfill that i must use to support basic stuff on ie9?
Thank you in advance for you help.
Looking at the Material Design Lite Grid SASS, the first thing that stands out is that it's using flexbox.
.mdl-grid {
display: flex;

IE9 doesn't support flexbox, and it's so old it doesn't even show up in the default view of CanIUse anymore!

There are polyfills for flexbox, but it's a fairly complex CSS feature which means the polyfills might not work well, or might have poor performance, or both!
One such polyfill is flexibility.
